ABOUT SODA WATER.
How This Popular and Harmless Sum-
mer Beverag,, is Produced.


mer Beverage IL Produced.
The drinking OF, so-called, "soda-
water" is becoming more and more
general. There are nearly seven thou
sand fountains in Boston alone. They
are found not only in drug stores. but
in restaurants, bar-rooms, confection-
cry stores, and retail merchant estab-
lishments. One house in the city has
fountain which cost between five and
six thousand dollars!
All are familiar with the effervescence
and foam that attend the mixing in
water of carbonate of soda and tartaric
acid. AS the term "soda" is applied
both to the fountain and to the drink
issuing from it, one naturally supposes
that there is soda in the foaming fluid
he is taking. 1t is not so, however.
The water is charged with carbonic
acid, and rs favored and swcetened
with some one Of the various sirups.
The carbonic acid gas is forced into
water with pressure of one hundred
and eighty pounds to the square inch,
and it is the escape of this gas, when
the faucet is turned and the water flows
into the tumbler, that causes the foam
ing.
The gas was formerly obtained from
carbonate of soda, and hence the pres
ent name, which still clings to it; but
1t is now obtained from marble, which
is carbonate of lime. Marble is SIM
ply lime and carbonic acid chemically
combined. The union is q weak one.
Sulphuric acid has much stronger
affinity for the lime than the carbonic
acid has, and upon being poured on
powdered marble, releases the carbonic
acid, which is then absorbed by the
water. 1t makes no difference with
the drink whether the carbonic acid is
obtained from soda or from marble,
since nothing but the acid passes into
the water In, and in the neighbor-
hood of, large cities, the sellers of soda
water do not charge their own foun-
tains. 1t is done for them at large CEN
trail establishments.
The question has been put to us il
sOuu-WulCI 10 WuOlSoOlhCs ZAiiupoN uh J
acidulated drink is pleasant in summer,
and it often meets u real need of the
system. Probably carbonated water is
as wholesome rs any. We should ad.
wise less of the sirup than is commonly
taken, partly because it is not apt to be
pure, and partly because, even if pure,
it is not very good for the stomach.
"Plain soda" is better than soda with
sirup, and, after little time, quite as
pleasant rs that. We believe that care
is taken to have the water pure. and tc
keep the apparatus free from corrosive
matter. and when this is done, no harm
is likely to result from a moderate re-
sort to the fountain. Youths Com,

COB MEAL FOR HOGS.
Interesting Experiments Made at the Iowa
Agricultural College.


Agricultural College.
The relative merits of cob meal (corn
and cobs ground together) and Indian
meal (the corn alone) are forcibly por-
traycd in an experiment at the Iowa
Agricultural College. Six lots of young
barrOws of the same breed averaging
about 230 pounds each were divided in
to two departments of the same weight
and flesh. During the spring and sum-
mer they received little more than grass,
and after August were fed grain to fat.
ten them. Full feeds of rye were given
them excepting one week in the last of
August, when corn on the cob was fed.
The feeding of meal was begun on Sep
tembcr IA, and before account was taken
of the experiment, each lot was fed one
week to accustom it to the feed. At
this time they were quite even in degree
of fatness, but those fed corn meal were
somewhat the heavier.
The hogs were weighed st the begin
ming of the experiment at the end of one
week, and again at the end Of two
weeks, when they We're Sold In each
case the weight was taken about noon
and before feeding. They were fed
three times each day The meal was
slightly moistened and small pinch of
salt given each lot in the mornings
food. They were kept in Enclosures
where no other food was obtainable.
The week before the experiment began
the weight of the six hogs was 1,452
pounds.
During the first weeks experiments,
Lot No. l, fed ON cob meal, gained 81
pounds; No. 3, 2Ia pounds; No. 5, 12f
pounds, making Il total of AZ pounds
for the cob-fed class the first week.
Those fed pure meal gained 16S pounds,
13a pounds and 16l pounds, amounting
to 46s pounds. At the end of the second
week OF feeding, the first class fed on
cob meal had gained % pounds, max
ing with the first weeks gain of AZ
pounds, IS pounds. The second class,
fed on clear meal. had made gain of
504 pounds in the second week. or a
total gain 81 pounds, showing gain
over the cob meal Of 22 pounds. OF
course this demonstrates the superior
value OF the clear meal; but when the
relative expense of the two meals is
considered, the experiment speaks very
| highly for cob and corn ground to-
gether, all the more SC when we re-
member that the second class fed on
clear meal was slightly heavier than
Glass at the beginning Of the first
weeks experiments.
By carefully weighing several bushels
before and after shelling, it was found
that there are l40S pounds of cob l.,
each bushcl of corn, counting 70. oa
pounds to the bushel of corn and cob
meal, and SO pounds to bushel OF
corn meal. There was fed 6, 22 bushels
of corn and cob meal and 80 bushels
of clear corn meal. The cob meal pro.
duced 1906 pounds of pork for each
bushcl fed and the corn meal 11.67
pounds per bushel. To produce one
pound Of pork, 4.79 pounds of the clear
meal were required and 5.Sl pounds OF
the cob meal At $3 per hundred
weight (the price at which the hogs
were sold), tho gain gave 46 cents pei

STRANGE CONFESSION.
Why the London Society Journals Attas
American L0dios.

Why the London Society Journals Attack
American Ladies'.
Some Of the society papers make a
great feature of attacks on the Ameri-
can element In London society. There
are two or three of the society papers
which never miss an opportunity of say
ing unkind and severe things about
American ladies in London. They are
never weary of representing them as
,erazy after royalty, court favor, and
eager in striving to make acquaintance
with titled people. One Of the oftenest
repeated stories is that American women
come in great crowds to be presented
at court, and that it requires the united
efforts of the Lord Chamberlain and the
United States Minister to restrain this
mob.

papers the other day and asked him
where he got all of his wonderful
facts about American women. His re-

voRACloUS MICROBES.
A New-Fanglcd Sort of a Worm That Eats

Up Steel Rails.
The existence has just been discov-
cred of a detestable microbe which
feeds upon iron with as much gluttony

time ago the greatest CONSERVATION ex-
listed among the engineers employed
on the railway at Hagen by the acci-
dents occurring always at the same
place, proving that some terrible defect
must exist either in the material or the
construction of the rails. The German
Government directed an inquiry to be
made and n commission of surveillance
to be formed for the purpose of main
tanning constant watch at the spot
where the accidents-one of them at
tended with loss of life--had occurred.
1t was not, however, until after six
months had elapsed that the surface
of the rails appeared to be cor
rodcd, as if by acid, to the extent
of one hundred yards. The rail was
taken up and broken, and it was
perceived that it was literally followed
out by thin gray worm, to which the
qualification of "railoverous'' was as
signed, and by which name it is to be
classed in natural history. The worm
is said to be two centimeters in length
and of the size of the prong of q silver
fork in circumference. II is of o light

little glands filed with corrosive Sc.

AN EXCELLENT RULE.
Nevcr Write to n Man What You Can Say

to His Face.
In a business Office down town yes-
terday group of men were discussing
imprudences in writing letters, when
one of them said: 81 had an early les
son in that matter which gave me u
very safe rule to follow. 1t was when
I was quite young and had dispute
with man whose Office was just across
the street from my own. In great an
ger sat down and wrote him letter
which. while it expressed all my feel
ings regarding the difference between
us, put me completely in his power
legally. Within twenty-four hours 1
found out what mistake had made.
In the same town there was an old at
torney who had been more of friend
to me than legal counselor. He had
got beyond the age where he enjoyed
legal controversies or cared any thing
about fecs, and he proved good friend
to me in this instance. l stated the
whole case to him and asked his adj
vice as to what l should do. He told
mo to wait in his Office few minutes.
I remember watching him put on his
old linen duster that reached down to
his knees and go ambling out of the
Office, while my heart was in my mouth
for fear he should not be able to get
me out of my scrape. 1t was about
fifteen minutes until he came back.
BY what means he accomplished his
mission I never knew. But after he
had pulled off his old duster and hung
up his hat he gave me the letter that /
had sent to my enemy. Now, young
Iuan.' he said, let me give you this
piece of advice; Never write in q letter
to man what you can say to his face. ;
1t is the rule that have followed ever
since. IN. Y Tribune.
